## Caption

The most active volcano on earth, Kilauea on Hawaii’s Big Island, is currently erupting for the 47th time.⁣
⁣
Known for its dazzling fountains of molten lava that are shot meters into the air, the volcano is exceptionally active because it sits directly above a volcanic ‘hot spot’, where a plume of super-heated magma rises from deep within the Earth's mantle.⁣
⁣
While the flows of lava are currently contained to the volcano’s crater summit, authorities are warning that residents should be aware of volcanic gas and tephra during this episode.⁣
⁣
The Hawaii archipelago is one of the most volcanically active locations on earth, with six active volcanoes drawing in millions of tourists each year. ⁣
